Summary

As a proactive and analytical carpenter assistant with a decade of experience in the sector, I bring a comprehensive skill set to the construction industry. Having recently completed my skills assessment, I specialise in various carpentry domains, including commercial and residential projects, heritage works, and timber structural framing. My expertise further extends across architectural skirting, architraves as well as handling framing, eaves cladding and fit-outs, just to mention a few.


Hold a certificate III in carpentry, followed by a diploma of building and construction, a white card and further equipped with my own tools and personal protective equipment, I have proven my dedication to safety and efficiency across damage repair, measuring, drilling, drywall hanging, general woodwork and high-quality craftsmanship across commercial and high-end residential projects. Possessing an ABN and TFN, further recognised by Traders Recognition Australia, I’m a quick learner who can quickly adapt to new challenges and thus operate as an asset within the construction team.
